The Sink Choice Ideas for Your Modern Bar

Maybe the sink is not the first thing you’ll necessarily think of when building your home bar or renovating your current one, the bar sink is a very important addition to any room and likely something you will use every day. Being that there is such a broad spectrum of choices available on the market, it may take a bit of effort to get everything right. But just keep the following questions in mind before you start shopping, you will get it done.

1. Why would you want a prep or bar sink?

2. What material is going to best suit your needs? (Don’t worry, we go into detail on this later.)

3. In what way would you want the sink to be mounted? (We’ll cover this in a more in-depth way as well)

Once a hole has been cut to allow the sink to be placed within it, the rim forms a close seal with the surface. Very easy to install and tends to work well with most countertops/surfaces.

The under mount kind: With these sinks, the edge of the countertop material is exposed and finished to flow seamlessly into the sink beneath it with the aid of a waterproof sealant. This is a very contemporary style that makes wiping things into the sink from the counter a breeze. Some of these models may offer matching covers that will essentially turn them into even more counter space while not in use.
